Since the last fixes to this driver ensure now the queue termination is done correctly, we can finally disable the queue after a transfer without problems. The gain is that it will only be reenabled after the next transfer is fully set up. Before, the queue was running all the time and if the setup of the next message was interrupted by another thread, an incomplete buffer could have been sent, padded with zeroes.

Regular I2C usage should do, a bit of stress testing (putting I2C bus and system under load) would be great. drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mxs.c | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mxs.c b/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mxs.c index 4c37347..76b8af4 100644 --- a/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mxs.c +++ b/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mxs.c @@ -253,6 +253,9 @@ static int mxs_i2c_xfer_msg(struct i2c_adapter *adap, struct i2c_msg *msg, if (i2c->cmd_err == -ENXIO) mxs_i2c_reset(i2c); + else + writel(MXS_I2C_QUEUECTRL_QUEUE_RUN, + i2c->regs + MXS_I2C_QUEUECTRL_CLR); dev_dbg(i2c->dev, "Done with err=%d\n", i2c->cmd_err); @@ -383,8 +386,6 @@ static int __devexit mxs_i2c_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) if (ret) return -EBUSY; - writel(MXS_I2C_QUEUECTRL_QUEUE_RUN, - i2c->regs + MXS_I2C_QUEUECTRL_CLR); writel(MXS_I2C_CTRL0_SFTRST, i2c->regs + MXS_I2C_CTRL0_SET); platform_set_drvdata(pdev, NULL); -- 1.7.10 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
